Hi all,
Coagi's been a slow grower and I noticed he's been losing the color on some of his leg scales (see pics). His appetite is ferocious, but he just doesn't stack on weight and has been growing slowly. Here are some stats on growth for my two:
Coagi this month: gained 5 grams (68g total), SCL = 6.7cm
Rafiki this month: gained 12g (115g total), SCL = 8.1 cm
I've had them since August of last year, so they're ~10 months old.
Should I be concerned or do I have a slow grower? Humidity = 70-90%, cool side = 79-80ºF, warm side = º86-88ºF. Any thoughts on the color loss?
Here's Coagi's growth lines evident via wet carapace:
Darned bleached scales, what's up with that!?
Diet is varied, consisting grocery store greens during winter and dandelion, c. mallow, hibiscus, plantain, etc. during spring, summer, and portions of fall.
